Course overview
Resilience Is No Longer a Luxury
Rates of anxiety, overwhelm and burnout are at an all-time high amongst founders and C-suite leaders. Nor is this surprising given that few are taught how to listen to the interoceptive feedback from their body or consciously self-regulate.
The Impact of Accumulated Emotional Debt
Worse still, prolonged periods of high-stress cause 'allostatic overload' to accumulate—this increases the fragility of our nervous system, leading to anxiety, degraded performance & ultimately, exhaustion.
The Impact on Decision-Making
With fragile nervous systems, our decision-making capacity is compromised, and the vicious cycle ensues — with the best case continuing to cope in a state of perpetual mild disassociation. This state of being is far from conducive to effective, courageous, and creative leadership.
Learn How to Embrace Intensity
The leaders we are inspired by have one thing in common — they possess grounded and regulated nervous systems, which act as a tuning fork for the rest of their team. They embrace intensity whilst maintaining the emotional agility and bandwidth to hold space for colleagues... and can sustain this over time without burning themselves out.

Be a scientist of your own experience
We all have different bodies and different nervous systems and differing commitments — there is no one-size fits all approach.
Learning is optimal when embedded within community
Genuine learning rarely happens in a vacuum but ought to be subject to cycles of feedback.
Knowledge is a rumour until it lives in the muscle
Passively consuming dense content is borderline useless — benefits arise from consistent repetition.
